Welcome to Independent Elementary School

Independent Elementary School commits itself to educational excellence, responsibility, and dedication to watch our students SOAR! We pride ourselves with our hardworking and dedicated staff who focus on the importance of a well rounded and rigorous curriculum with an emphasis on the whole child and responding to students individual needs.

Students leave Independent as problem-solvers, being academically capable, and intellectually curious. They look back with a fondness of the memories of their time here and with the excitement, ability, and confidence to continue to Soar!
